Engine decontamination specialist, EDT Automotive, has joined forces with Whocanfixmycar.com (WCFMC), helping to make its fuel-saving and emissions-busting treatments available in even more locations across the UK.

According to Rachael Waddicor, national business development manager at WCFMC: “As a business, we pride ourselves on only partnering with the best garage service providers in the UK.”

With motorists hungry for access to engine and DPF cleaning services, the collaboration with EDT Automotive allows WCFMC to add the multi award-winning decontamination treatments to its ever-growing network of garages.

Rachael continued: “We’ve seen some strong interest from our garages, with a good number of initial sign ups to the EDT scheme.

“Once we’ve assembled a national network of workshops that have EDT machines installed, we will promote EDT’s services to our drivers who book in repair and service work through our website, providing them with the necessary information on where a treatment can be undertaken.”

Unique engine cleaning system

EDT’s unique system cleans the engine’s oil system, preparing it to receive the new oil without any contamination from the residue normally left after conventional servicing.

The unit heats and pulses a light mineral oil in and around the engine’s oil system, breaking down the carbon, sludge and wear-abrasive material and vacuuming it out through the sump via a 1 micron filtration system.

Results typically include better fuel economy, increasing MPG by up to 26 per cent, as well as lower emissions by up to 69 per cent and CO and diesel smoke reduced by up to 58 per cent.

Whocanfixmycar.com’s co-founder, Al Preston, experienced an EDT clean for himself back in December 2017 and commented: “There are several engine cleaning treatments on the market, but I am confident EDT is head and shoulders above the rest.

“The process (on my E92 BMW M3) was clearly explained, and it was fascinating to watch the physical residue being extracted during the cleaning process by EDT technicians who are clearly confident and passionate about the product.

“I could instantly detect that the car was running better within minutes of driving off and can see the benefits of repeating the exercise at the next oil change.”

WhoCanFixMyCar Garage Awards

Over the past two years, the relationship between the two companies has spawned a number of branding and direct recruitment campaigns, and EDT have also twice sponsored categories in the annual WhoCanFixMyCar Garage Awards.

Eagle Autos in South Wimbledon, recent recipient of WCFMC’s ‘Best Garage in London’ and ‘Hall of Fame’ awards, are the only garage in the South West London area to adopt an EDT engine decontamination machine in order to “help the garage differentiate themselves from the competition, which will likely help grow the business further,” according to Ian Griffiths, co-founder at WCFMC.

Talking about the partnership, David Holmes, Managing Director at EDT Automotive, said: “Being given the ‘seal of approval’ by a brand as trusted as WhoCanFixMyCar has been invaluable to us, and the joint venture has helped us to reach new locations, making our services even more widely available.”
